I've always said of myself I can do mostly anything if I put my mind to it.

I pretty much keep my mouth quiet and go about my business.

In my career, I've found that anything can happen.

I want people to see that I'm not a one-hit wonder.

Every team did it. They'll say, 'You white boy, you ain't gonna run on us today. This is ridiculous. Why are you giving offensive linemen the ball?' All kinds of stuff like that you hear on the field, but I use that to my advantage. I kind of soaked it in, ate it up a little bit, because I enjoyed it.

Everybody's going to play in tough-weather games - snow, rain, sleet - but you've got to hold onto the football.

Actually, I don't even believe in curses.

It's really sad how many people believe in curses.

I never one time mentioned anything to any coach about retirement or joining the CIA or anything like that.

You can love something too much, you can spend too much time with something - that's when you've got to learn how to balance.

Some people spend too much time with their job, not enough with their family. You've got to balance things out.

I didn't run the ball very much in college. I sat out most of the time and played a little slot receiver, a little tight end, a little fullback but that's pretty much about it.

I am just here to serve God's will.

Whatever it takes to get on the field and get that starting spot to get the carries. I've always worked hard.

There are a lot of athletic trends that I don't have. I feel like I have a bigger heart and desire than most people do.

I believe that the Lord is going to take care of me. I know His will is the only way that can judge me or put me in my place.

You've got to go out there and play your best. It's about what you do on the football field.

I never was a guy who wanted to be in the limelight.

A guy like me, it's probably pretty hard for somebody to pinpoint what position to have me do, where to put me all the time.

No one in a normal walk of life flies into a new city unknown and unemployed and ends up doing their job on national television a few days later. I love the game, but it's crazy sometimes.

Perception is reality. People take what they want to from things.

I'm doing yoga, MMA and things like that. I'm an unorthodox player, so I have to do things that fit my kind of game.

My football idol growing up, I was named after Walter Payton, but my idols at RB were Barry Sanders and Emmitt Smith.

The Cleveland Browns fans really are the greatest fans.

I guess when you get paid over 100 million dollars by one team, it's kind of easy to point the finger at other guys and try to hate on them for trying to get another contract.

I think when coaches look at me, they don't see a prototypical running back.

I'm 250 pounds, I'm not really fast.

I went through a couple of years there just mad at the world. I put my faith in the world and the world let me down. And I should have known that. The world's always going to let you down. Put your faith in God.

I really enjoyed my time in Cleveland.

I just try to do the best I can.

I kind of like to think I can do everything decently well. It's just putting me in position to be a playmaker, blocking, special teams, no matter what it may be. Whenever I go out there, I'm going to do my best.

I've been very blessed.

I'm a guy who is going to go out there and do his best, and I'm a guy who has always gone out there and proved people wrong.

I like to look at it as things and people and whole society in general being uneducated about facts. There are a lot of stereotypes. But I don't see color, I don't see race.

One thing I have figured out: People don't like different. People don't like to see anything different. When you see something different, you are either scared or afraid or you feel threatened. And I feel that the way I play the game, it feels like I should have played 50 years ago. But it's what I do.

I'll carry a ball around with me all day and ask people to try to knock it out of my hand when I least expect it. I'll give them some money and stuff, so people get pretty geeked up about that. It just helps me to take care of the ball without even thinking about it.

I like a good challenge, and I'm always up for anything.

I always find competition in each and every thing I do, and it will bring competition - no doubt about it.

Not only do you have 16 regular-season games, you also have four preseason games. Then if you make the playoffs, you can have four more games before you get to the Super Bowl. So you can already have 24 games without the 18-game season. And 24 games takes a real toll on somebody's body.

I really enjoyed my time playing in a Browns uniform.

I have an open mind and I'm willing to do whatever.

Whenever you're having a down year, it's always tough, especially when you expect a lot from yourself.

I'm a human being just like everybody else.

When you walk around Cleveland, the fans are starving for a winner and a successful team, and you saw how upset they were when LeBron left. You just want to win it for them.

I was always pretty much the biggest running back on the field at any given time.

As a kid, you'd look at all these guys in the NFL and almost idolize them.

I didn't notice pain in the way that most guys would.

If you can't keep yourself in shape on your own without being told to, that's a shame.

This is football; everyone gets hurt. If you run the ball 40 times a game, you're going to get banged around and get nicks and bruises here and there, but I don't pay too much attention to that.

You can do something if you put your heart into it.
